Chapter 11 - Dismantling Silas’s Real Estate Ring
While Knox and Dela talked at the hospital, Toby and his tactical teams executed simultaneous raids across three Illinois counties.
Every single shell company, fake trust, and luxury property registered under Silas Crane’s name was frozen under emergency injunctions.
High-priced attorneys hired by Marchetti Holdings swept in, stripping Silas of every corporate title and luxury asset he ever boasted about.
By evening, Silas’s lakeside mansion was officially seized by federal marshals and converted into a court-ordered restitution fund.
Toby called Knox from the field to report the successful completion of the asset recovery operation.
“Everything Silas owned is locked down, boss. Not a single penny of your mother’s money remains in his possession,” Toby reported over the encrypted line.
“Good. Make sure the restitution funds are transferred directly into the new foundation we set up for Dela and my mother,” Knox instructed.
“Already done, sir. The paperwork is waiting for your signature at the downtown office.”

“Keep an eye on the surrounding properties, Toby. People like Silas don't operate in a vacuum; someone bigger was backing him.”
“Understood. I’ve doubled surveillance around the hospital and Dela’s apartment complex,” Toby confirmed before ending the call.
